Union Home Minister Amit Shah made a subtle jab at Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Saturday when he said that a brother and sister whose “origins are in Italy” won’t be able to comprehend the progress made by the Narendra Modi administration.
Speaking at a public gathering in Junnardeo, in the Chhindwara district of Madhya Pradesh, which is headed for elections, Mr Shah said that the Indian people could understand the progress and mentioned, among other things, the building of the Ram temple and the repeal of Article 370.
The BJP MP claimed that despite the world applauding India’s success story, the Congress fails to see any good in the nation.
“The brother and sister (Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi-Vadra) while roaming in poll-bound states keep asking what has been done (by the BJP-led Centre), but they won’t be able to understand this (development) as their origin is in Italy. Those having their origin in India will clearly understand this,” Mr Shah said.
“Rahul Baba used to remark that the BJP will only talk about the temple (in Ayodhya) but won’t tell its date. Now see, Modi ji has not only constructed the temple but has also told the date (of the consecration). Just go there and seek blessings to get satisfaction,” he said.
“Not only the (Ram) temple is being constructed, but Modi ji has abrogated Article 370 (granting special status to Jammu and Kashmir), nullified triple talaq, conducted air strike and surgical strikes, launched the moon mission, and provided 33 per cent reservation to women among other things,” Shah said.
